  35. Hey Even Java4s.com is the superb….!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Really i love this.

  36. I think the list needs a overhaul.

    CodeRanch/JavaRanch has been there even before 2004, please verify the date before putting it up. Searching on the CodeRanch forums will show you results as old as 2000, and I know members who have been on the ranch since 1998, for example:http://www.coderanch.com/forums/user/profile/74

    And I dont think we would require top 20 sites, because lot of sites like RoseIndia, Java2S, JavaTips, among others dont do any thing good apart from just putting up the source code.
    You have missed the all famous JavaPosse- http://javaposse.com/. Also few good ones are- JavaSpotLight: https://blogs.oracle.com/javaspotlight/, InfoQ (this one’s really good), Parleys ( this one has lot of good videos from across Devoxx, Javaone).
    JavaLobby(Dzone) is much better than the ones its sitting with.

  37. Please check your facts about statckoverflow.com I think it’s ASP.net

  45. Hi Java Lover,
    Thanks a lot for sharing java goodies.
    Among the sites listed,i used to follow Roseindia,java2s and coderanch sites regularly.

    The best site related to java platform i met in my life is none other than “Roseindia”,which is a fantastic reference for a a beginner/experienced.

    Recently “www.javabeat.net” also stolen my attention towards it..Refer this and if u feel this eligible,add it in the best sites list of java.

  47. Thanks so much for the list…there are definately a few here that I don’t visit often such as Java-Tips or Mkyong. Javablogs is great, and IBM developerworks does put out some quality series. I’m hoping that overtime http://www.translucent-development, and particular some of its new features such as the Development Links becomes a good one-stop place for someone looking to get up to speed in Java, and other things on the JVM.

        2. Yes true, roseindia is really waste, rather java4s.com is 100% better for freshers to J2EE Developpers.
